TAMIYA A6M5 Zero 1:48

Tamiya G4M1 ‘Betty’ & A6M3 ‘Hamp’ 1/48, Operation Vengeance Collection
I like to think I know a fair bit about WW2 aviation, but I didn't expect how massive the G4M1 was until the box arrived in the post. At a wingspan of 41.6cm, and a fuselage length of 51.8cm, this model dwarfs anything else I've made and [...]

Dear all,
Mabey some of you will find this post useful.
I have two very young sons and I am trying to infect them with modelling mojo. I found some Revell quick build car (Older boy loves it). This time I want to share with you guys some [...]
Hasegawa 1/48 A6M2 Zero
With Louis Gardner's article series on Japanese aircraft colors ramping up ((link)), I thought I'd deliver my take on the early war Mitsubishi A6M2.
Hasegawa's Zero has been around for 25 years now, and it is still a very nice kit. It [...]
